I don’t know about you, but as I wake up every morning with a hot cup ofIrish Breakfast Tea, I like to stroll around on the internet, seeing what’s in the news of the day, what new cute thing some kitty cat did, or if there are any brand spanking new health benefits discovered about my favorite thing the world--tea.
Well, today when I booted up my laptop, I saw something I hadn’t noticed before! Those cute little Apple ads have one talking about tea! Specifically the soothing benefits of tea. It seems that people who have computers need the comfort of a nice cup of tea as much as the rest of us!
So the Great Tea Date is tomorrow! I’m really looking forward to going out with him. We’re going to a nice sushi restaurant and a movie, that I picked (yay chivalry!), and I think it’s going to be a very nice time. The last he and I spoke, he told me something really interesting about Green Tea. Did you know there is actually a kind of Green Tea that is fried? No, really!
I was surprised, too. So decided to brush up on my Green Tea knowledge. Here’s what I learned.
While I wait around for The Great Tea Date to call (and if he doesn’t call soon, he’s lost his chance with me!), I’ve been thinking about what it is that attracts two people together. Is it chemical? Is it physical? Is it chance?
I’m no biochemist or psychologist, but I’ve certainly had my share of hot-blooded and stone-cold moments. If you really like a guy, what can you do to keep the spark alive? I’m also not a witch doctor, so I’m not concocting any love potions in my kitchen. But I have been thinking about the aphrodisiac qualities of herbal tea. Could they really work?
Greetings tea students. I know we have talked about the health benefits of tea (especially green tea) quite a bit, but we speak about it at such length because it seems every day new health benefits are being discovered.
And today, as the fall weather starts to set in, and the temperature starts to change, it is possible that you might find yourself sniffling a bit. The weather changes affect many peoples’ bodies. So it is an excellent time for me to inform you that tea can help your allergies.
I, Earl of Grey, have taken a few moments out of my precious schedule to allow you to bask in my presence. My hot tea was too hot, and I have a moment or two before Henry pulls out the loose leaves and hands it to me. So I thought I would tell you a little bit about…yourselves.
You’ve no doubt thought as you shopped for your favorite flavored tea—“Why do I enjoy flavored tea so much?”
I have wondered that very thought. “Why do Americans prefer flavored tea?” And I think I have the solution. Heed my wisdom, for I shan’t repeat it.
Teato has many loves. Sunsets. Beautiful Women. Tea. And when it comes time to give someone a present, Teato gives them…tea. What else? It is the embodiment of beauty, in tiny little leaves.
But if you want to bestow the gift of tea on someone special, you must know their heart. Here are a few suggestions on what kind of tea to give those close to you:
Choosing Tea for a Friend
If you are just beginning on your friendship journey, go with a sampler — something with a variety of tea. That way they can find the path to loving tea, and you, themselves. Whether that path is through black tea, green tea, or herbal tea, they can be their own guide.
What’s up, you guys? I’ve got up to the minute tea information for you! The other day, instead of my usual cup of organic oolong tea, I met up with some friends and we had a tea ceremony. We had a special green tea I’d never had before, called matcha tea. It was delicious and super healthy, and I knew you would want to know all about it.
Matcha green tea is a traditional tea from Japan. If you’re ever in Japan and involved in a formal tea ceremony, chances are you’re going to be served matcha. But it’s popular all over the world as well—it may be the most popular green tea on the market today. Read full entry! »
There seems to be a lot of confusion out there about the amount of caffeine in a cup of tea, and what that means. When you drop your tea bag into your cup of tea, you want to know just how much caffeine you’re getting. The short answer is that it varies—depending on whether you’re using a tea bag or loose leaf tea, how long you steep it for, etc. But fear not—Master Amanzi shall tell you more.
Hullo again, tea-loving commoners. Time to put down your tea bags, take a big sip of your loose leaf teas, and pay attention. For ‘tis I, the Earl of Grey. I am sure you’ve missed me at least ten times as I’ve missed you. Nevertheless, here I am to tell you a bit about Puerh Tea.
As the health benefits of tea become more and more clear, and an increasing number of delicious types of tea reach stores worldwide, tea is becoming incredibly popular. And as tea drinkers get to try all new kinds of tea to which they’d previously never been exposed, they discover new favorites. Puerh tea is a new favorite with many experienced tea drinkers.
Greetings young Tea Students. On the long Road to Tea Enlightenment, during an idle cup of steaming herbal tea, perhaps you have thought to yourself, “How does Master Amanzi keep it together? He is so old!” Before I discipline you for your insubordination, let me tell you another tea health benefit of which I am a prime example.
